BEDFORD, May 2-Springville small town
on the narrow gauge railroad. ten miles west of
Bedford was the scene of a tragedy Sunday
night, when Arthur Voss. twenty-five years of
age. was shot and killed by William Evans As
a means of amusement, the young of
Springviile and vicinity, it seems, have been in
the habit of congregating in the town, after
night, and indulging in the sport of throwing
stones at dwellings, etc. After church services,
on Sunday night young Voss and three or four
companions went forth to engage in this pastne.
While the plan in operation,
young Evans having accompanied young
lady home from church. was returning
through the village and heard the noise made by
fsins rocks. The ready revolver which Evans
carried upon his person suggested the idea that
he might also amuse himself He remarked to
a companion that he would creep up in the direc-
ton of the boys who were throwing stones and
brighten them by dschargine his revolver. After
carrying out this purpose he returned and re-
ported to his companions that some of the boys
had run and some had not. In few moments
two of Voss's companions were seen approach
ing, supporting Voss between them, and Evans
learned the result of his practical joke. Young
Voss died in three four minutes after the
shooting. The ball had assed through his
breast. Evans and Voss members OF res pect-
able and nf1ue tial families who reside
Springville. The killing is thought to have been
an accident. Esquire Dillman, of this city,
went to SpringvIlle. Sunday night, to hold
inquest Evans had not been arrested at last
